Max Verstappen will take part in a GT race on the Nordschleife for
the first time on Saturday. The four-time F1 champion wants to
obtain an A license to participate in the 24 Hours of Nürburgring
in the future, meaning he will make his GT debut in a four-hour
event. Verstappen had to undergo a course on Friday to be allowed
to drive. The Dutchman drove two reconnaissance laps behind a green
Mercedes and took a theory exam. Looking forward to the race, and
speaking to his own website, he said: "Racing is not only my
profession, but also my hobby. "This weekend I'll be at the
Nordschleife, with the goal of obtaining the mandatory racing
licence needed to race here in a GT3 car, because I would love
that. "The Nordschleife is at the top of my list of circuits I want
to race on, because it is extremely challenging and demanding, with
its enormous length and tight, historic layout. I can't wait." View
